Breakfast cooked by Juancho at the "Las Brisas" School. No power, everything still out from the huge storm on Thursday.
Entering Tribal Land... You have to be guided by a tribal member, since it's dense, dense forrest and a HIGH risk of getting lost. Lots of small indigenous communities spread through the mountains.
Trail is pretty sketchy the entire.... Up, up up, and then down, down, down... MUD everywhere... And 80% humidity
On the trail in the Indigenous Reserve
Just some quick fast food in the forest.... This was kind of like mammon chino, you opened them up and sucked off some gooey stuff around the seed.
If your guide is carrying a machete, he's probably going to have to use it at some point to clear the trail.
Beautiful river on the way to Tsiobata (Indigenous Reserve)
Primary forest on the Reserve
Lunch with my guides in Tsiobata, Native Reserve
Traditional buildings in Tsiobata, built by the community.
Wire basket transport back to the other side of the river and then uphill for 5km, back to town, crossing over the Pacuare River.
End of the hardest day. I've never been more drenched with sweat in my entire life. Sweat is dripping off my body. Every square inch of clothing is soaked. AND IT WASN'T EVEN HOT, it's the humidity.
Coke Zero at the end of a LONG day
Beautiful view back "in town" at Paso Vents, lovely cottage on the hill...
